Event narrative

An EF-2 tornado touched down in western Maury County, just northeast of Hampshire near U.S. Highway 412. It was here that timber damage occurred as well as damage to at least one barn on Old State Road and Roy Thompson Road. The tornado crossed into an inaccessible wooded area thereafter then emerged onto Rippey Lake Road, causing additional damage to trees. The tornado then caused significant damage to a home, removing almost the entire roof section and collapsing most walls. The tornado weakened as it moved southeast, causing additional timber damage on South Bridges Road before dissipating on Ashwood Road. Damages are a rough estimate.
